Monitoring of ground reduction was undertaken in advance of the development of a football pitch. A number of pieces of worked flint were recovered during monitoring, but no associated archaeological features were revealed. The area had been deep-ploughed for agricultural reasons for several years, and, should archaeological features have been present, they may have been destroyed by such consistent ploughing.
